This is a really ironic comment given how the US gov is getting politically involved in pretty much all science research funding and speech at the moment.

Agree with all of that but want to point out one thing that is almost always true re: businesses citing loss of parking to oppose bike lanes:

99% of the time the business owners are really just mad that they personally cannot park directly outside their business anymore. They may cite nonsensical things like 2 less parking spaces outside their business will lead to less customers, but what they are really mad about is their own personal parking space going away. Very dumb and selfish

Their branding & website looks like a generic fake shop that was created in 30 mins for testing or scamming

thats more of a legal requirement rather than an active advertisement to consumers

I've used Cline for a year now and very happy with it. Fits my workflow really well

I've been really liking the Cline extension in VS Code

You don't think one company being worth half a year of the biggest country in the world's budget is all that much?

Hard to know how to where to go from there because I find that quite insane.

Setting up data centers in orbit

Still have yet to hear how data centers in space are actually supposed to be a good thing when cooling them is much harder than on earth because they are in a near vacuum with much less heat dissipation.

Setting up facilities to beam down energy to earths surface could also be an opportunity

Also interested to learn how this is done without creating a death ray with potentially catastrophic consequences

So if all the current telcos in the US lose all of their customers and SpaceX captures 100% of them without degrading the current margin/pricing at all, they are 5% of their way to the $4.3t goal. And the only way I can see that happening is from government mandate - which if things don't change I guess never say never. But still a very very very long way off

Go for a walk and take a few deep breaths

Sorry what FM or AM channel was this AI experiment on?

Do you live near a city? Because pretty much every major city has a few. KEXP, WPFW, WUSC, KNHC are all local stations playing interesting non top 40 music that have been operating for decades in places that I have lived. Dublab & The Lot radio are also really good over the internet.

If there are non around you just pick a random place in the world here and listen: https://radio.garden

It's certainly 100x better than corporate and/or AI slop streams

Yeah and my entire point is that the quality standard that artificial intelligence developers should be aiming for is not soulless corporate mass market media. Because our world world is already swimming that nonsense. So there's absolutely nothing novel in finding a new way to create beige bs.

Once again, I have no idea what you're talking about when talking about fines or manipulation, I'm talking about quality. But it seems pretty damn clear at this point that you have never listened to any local independent radio station.

You should really try it out sometime. It's a lot better. And it'll save you from calling people snowflakes because you feel insecure about what type of radio stations they like.

You should go DJ at one of those independent radio stations

I have for years.

and play some rather filthy uncensored songs, and let me know exactly how your programming “didn’t get manipulated”.

What on earth are you talking about.

Honestly your reply comes across as extremely insecure and just weird.

Yes.

You are missing the very simple point: there are tons of independent stations the play excellent non top 40 music and have been for years.

Just because you don't choose to tune into them doesn't mean they don't exist. And it also doesn't mean that those who do should lover their standards for what constitutes good radio.

Just because a lot of people like big blockbuster movies doesn't mean that's the standard that I hold good film to.

Similar to radio. If you're going to use huge amounts of processing power to create something new, it should at least be interesting and held to a standard of good for its category, not the standard of corporate slop.

So cool, you can now replace corporate slop with AI slop. For some people who like to turn into radio with no soul or personality I guess it's a win. But for people like myself who actually like to hear interesting and novel things on the radio, this is just a big exercise is creating more filler and noise in an already grayed out world.

If iHeartRadio is your testible standard for radio stations than we have lost as a society.

You should find some better radio stations. There are tons of independent stations the play excellent non top 40 music and have been for years.

This is like saying the the movies that people like are manipulated but only focusing on what is played at big box theaters.

It's pretty clear your definition of politics is a lot more narrow than what almost everyone else is talking about in this thread.

And I know that you never said anything about ignoring the externalities, that's what I'm saying about you.

Once again, I have no idea what you're responding to, but it's not arguments that people are actually making in this thread.

It creates a much better discussion if you respond to what people write rather than what you may have heard other random people say anytime over the last few years.

there's a whole world of wonderful radio that has been thriving for decades, completely different than Spotify or talk radio.

It's unfortunate that you haven't seemed to experience any of it, but I've personally loved over the years stations like KEXP, WPFW, Dublab, WUSC

The only way that anyone be worried about this slop replacing actual good human run radio is if they don't understand why people like radio & music in the first place.

And what hypothesis exactly is the experiment testing? Because it doesn't really seem like there is any new or interesting information learned from this.

“If you don’t participate in politics you’re evil” is an argument that you completely made up.

You don't like to be called selfish for not considering how your actions might affect others, but others are supposed to care about how their actions might affect you? Seems like a pretty self centered attitude to have.

I'm not scared at all about this replacing radio stations. It's like being worried that soylent is going to replace restaurants.

Just because something is called an experiment doesn't mean that it automatically is useful and should be done. And in this case it is just a waste of time and energy of both the people reading it and the machines processing it.

Just because you choose to ignore the externalities of your choices doesn't mean they no longer exist. It just means that you value your personal well being and comfort more than being informed about the results of your actions.

I just want to say how much I love that you used Dean Blunt in the example video

It helps to read the linked article before commenting.

AI is an analogy to something that people feel the technology is similar to but that it is obviously not.

Language is more of less a series of analogies. Comparing one thing to another is how humans are able to make sense of the world.

Posting AI summaries of articles that you didn't even read is one of the worst type of comments you can possibly make.
